Brand new Makaira won’t go into low……

[Panhandler80]

Had two brand-new 30s silver come in the mail today.  When I try to put one of them into low nothing happens.   You kind of feel spring on metal and a sound but no click like you do on the other one, for my prior three. 

Needless to say I'm a little bit irritated.

Thoughts?   I got it to go to low a few times by pushing up a little arm a little bit. I've tried it under load I've tried it no load. I've tried different presets with load and no load.

There's something missing in the name real but I don't know what. I don't have time to fix it. Or look into it and it's brand new.

Send them back to Okuma, they will fix them.

Time is the issue.  Heading offshore next Fri for 3 days and not sure who all is bringing what tackle.  Need a couple back up rods.

 Possibly buy two new reel from amazon to meet your dead line and send the first two back.
